Description
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and National Certified Counselor with over 12 years of experience specializing in trauma, addictions, and relationship-based challenges. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I work with individuals healing from PTSD, complex trauma, sexual abuse, and the deeper emotional wounds that often drive unhealthy relationship patterns.
A significant focus of my work is supporting clients struggling with codependency, love addiction, and attachment wounding. I help individuals break free from cycles of seeking validation, people-pleasing, emotional caretaking, and staying in relationships that feel unsafe, unpredictable, or unfulfilling. My goal is to guide clients toward healthier boundaries, secure connection, and a stronger sense of self.
In addition to relationship-focused work, I support clients navigating substance use, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger, women’s issues, and the emotional impact of major life stressors.
My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in the belief that our early childhood experiences shape how we learn to love, trust, and attach. When emotional needs are unmet in childhood—whether through neglect, lack of nurture, inconsistency, or chaos—it can lead to patterns of self-abandonment and relationship difficulties in adulthood. To support healing, I use an integrative approach tailored to each client’s unique needs, often incorporating EMDR, inner child work, and cognitive behavioral therapy.
I am licensed to practice in Florida, Georgia, and Texas.
